Fencepost
Such bitter winds blow
And we've heard it all day
There's nothing between these fencepost rows
To make the dirt decide to stay
Last spring when we pruned the roses
Red snow on the ground
Put my ear to a fencepost
Couldn't hear a sound
And now there's a light rain falling
Everything's gonna be fine
Except maybe now we're wishing
It would all be dry
And now there's a light rain falling
Everything's gonna be fine
Except maybe now we're wishing
It would be all day, be all night
Wire stretched between fenceposts
Wire stretched on the wall
Talking to a nail in a fencepost
Talking at the wall
This fall when I plow the fields under
I'll be thinking only of you
Shadow shaped from flock of starling
Flying south, too
And now there's a light rain falling
Everything's gonna be fine
Except maybe now we're wishing
It would all be dry
And now there's a light rain falling
Everything's gonna be fine
Except maybe now we're wishing
You could stay all day, stay all night
Wrap up my troubles in a cloth
And tie it round my waist
I'm gonna go for a long long walk
Be gone a hundred days
And now there's a light rain falling
Everything's gonna be fine
Except maybe now we're wishing
It would all be dry
Nobody got nothing to say
That ain't better shown or done
Here, let me demonstrate
Gotta go. Gotta run
And we've heard it all day
There's nothing between these fencepost rows
To make the dirt decide to stay
Last spring when we pruned the roses
Red snow on the ground
Put my ear to a fencepost
Couldn't hear a sound
And now there's a light rain falling
Everything's gonna be fine
Except maybe now we're wishing
It would all be dry
And now there's a light rain falling
Everything's gonna be fine
Except maybe now we're wishing
It would be all day, be all night
Wire stretched between fenceposts
Wire stretched on the wall
Talking to a nail in a fencepost
Talking at the wall
This fall when I plow the fields under
I'll be thinking only of you
Shadow shaped from flock of starling
Flying south, too
And now there's a light rain falling
Everything's gonna be fine
Except maybe now we're wishing
It would all be dry
And now there's a light rain falling
Everything's gonna be fine
Except maybe now we're wishing
You could stay all day, stay all night
Wrap up my troubles in a cloth
And tie it round my waist
I'm gonna go for a long long walk
Be gone a hundred days
And now there's a light rain falling
Everything's gonna be fine
Except maybe now we're wishing
It would all be dry
Nobody got nothing to say
That ain't better shown or done
Here, let me demonstrate
Gotta go. Gotta run
